Consent agenda
by Marika Konings May 3, 2012

May 3, 2012

Dear All, In order to facilitate the discussions on the consent agenda item, please find attached a first draft of a possible provision to be included in the GNSO Operating Procedures. Please note that there are a couple of differences with the language suggested by J. Scott: * In order to avoid awkward situations, it would be recommended to exclude items that are subject to absentee voting from being on a consent agenda. Otherwise you might have a situation where an item is approved on the consent agenda, but here's a possibility that an online voter may vote against the item, that would make it awkward to later say "this item was passed on the consent agenda with one online vote against." * The language proposed by J. Scott suggested a call for 'no objections' following which the items would be approved, but that does not align with the Bylaws which calls for an affirmative vote so I've changed that accordingly. * Because of the house-based nature of the GNSO and the various thresholds, we'd encourage the GNSO to consider including a statement in the minutes regarding the composition/threshold that approved the consent agenda which has also been reflected in the proposed language. With best regards, Marika

Notes from yesterday's SCI meeting
by Marika Konings April 27, 2012

April 27, 2012

Dear All, Following yesterday's SCI meeting, please find below the different work items and related notes. As discussed, members of the SCI are encouraged to indicate which topics they would be interested in working on so that on the next call it can be decided how to move forward on these different items. Attached you'll find the different documents that were used as part of the discussion. With best regards, Marika WORK ITEMS SCI a. WG Survey * Survey on the experiences with WG Guidelines needs to be added to list of work items * (Note – Staff would be happy to prepare a first draft of such a survey that might serve as a basis for further work / discussion) b. Consent Agenda * Include procedure sent by J. Scott (see http://forum.icann.org/lists/gnso-improvem-impl-sc/msg00146.html) into the comparison table to facilitate comparison by SCI (Action item: Marika) c. Deferral of Motions * Deferral of motions: currently unwritten rule which allows deferral upon request from SG/C, which is always allowed. Normally only one time deferral only, although there have been exceptions in the past. Council has requested SCI whether a formal procedure is needed / preferred. PDP rules allow individual member of Council to request deferral on PDP related vote (once). Individual vs. SG/C? What is the role of 'socializing' motions prior to formally introducing them - does that reduce the need for deferrals? d. Voting Threshold rules for Delaying a PDP * Threshold rules needed for delaying a PDP - overview of current rules and recent situation on delaying 'thick' Whois PDP. e. Proxy Voting Procedure * At the last GNSO Council meeting a proxy was requested but not in the correct way. Do rules need to be adapted to accomodate situations where no formal proxy can be given? Overview of current proxy voting rules (section 4.6 of Operating Procedures) provided. Current rules don't provide for last minute situations, assumes a certain time delay between knowing that Council member cannot attend Council meeting and giving proxy. Do youneed to create rules for every possible exception? Several members of the SCI noted that they do not think modifications need to be made to the current rules. d. Update of GNSO Council Voting Results Table * As a result of the adoption of the new PDP and related update of the voting thresholds in the ICANN Bylaws, the voting results table has been updated. SCI requested to review the table, which has been updated to be consistent with the changes as a result of the new PDP, so it can be included in the GNSO Operating Procedures.

Updated Consent Agenda Comparison Table
by Marika Konings April 25, 2012

April 25, 2012

Dear All, As discussed during our last meeting, I've integrated the consent procedure as suggested by J. Scott (see http://forum.icann.org/lists/gnso-improvem-impl-sc/msg00146.html) into the comparison table which also included the board procedure and the interim procedure used by the GNSO Council (see attached). Please note that I've made a couple of small modifications such as changing President to Chair / Council Leadership and adding 'links to' as an additional option to including the full text of reports in the minutes to reflect existing practice. One thing I did notice is that the main difference between the board procedure, proposed procedure and the interim Council procedure appears to be that the latter specifically does not allow items on the consent agenda which are to be decided with a motion. This issue was also put forward to the SCI for consideration by the Council leadership: 'In particular, [the SCI] may wish to look at items that may require exclusion from the consent agenda (a motion vote is an obvious example), to serve as guideline for theCouncil Chair and Leadership Team when a GNSO Council meeting agenda is being drafted'. The SCI may wish to consider this issue in further detail at its next meeting. With best regards, Marika
